hi Bob - As I noted earlier: the rules do not state "first two breaks" but
that is how the checkers work. If you have a situation as you describe, a
simple note to the contest director would suffice to ensure your log is
scored fairly. But making conscious decisions about your break strategy is
the best policy.
